sundstrom Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 44 minutes ago, Triumph said: You cannot offer an extra year unless a player was on your roster as of the trade deadline. i didn't know that. that's actually something that hurts a team that's going to lose a big time UFA. Think about it - if Stamkos is set on going to Toronto, and TB knows this, and he wants the 8th year, wouldn't it behoove TB to say to Toronto - hey, trade us something so you can do that. i don't see who's against the idea of whoever has your rights, whenever it is, gets to offer the 8th year. it's like when lebron went to miami - the heat traded the cavs a 1st rounder so they could offer him more $ under the Bird-rule.

Triumph Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 It smacks of collusion. At least in the NBA teams only have a very limited amount of picks. There's also the complication of canceled sign-and-trade deals. The eight-year rule is meant to help teams retain their own players - having a trade option just removes that in favor of the ability to get assets.

vadvlfan Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 If Rangers had given Yandle 6.35 (what he signed for) is still less than D. Stepan is being paid. I think PMD types are hard to find, I agree with above i wish Shero had signed him for same amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zubie#8 Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I do not think 6.35 is an overpayment for Yandle whatsoever value in a 73m cap market. Fair value. The term is long obviously but Yandle had all of the leverage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all over the place across the league. Could Jarmo know something about the Finns? If true, Davidson/Jarmo shouldn't try to get too cute with this pick. Be grateful that you got lucky in the lottery and just take Puljujarvi and then fix your team and cap in other moves. Jarmo was on "Game Day" this morning w/ S. Koulias. Would tip his hat, but they are very prepared for tomorrow. Oddly, he said he's never picked a Finnish player. Wonder if that practice will change. Other guests were on as well (Eric engel) & said that picks 6-15 are all same level. Unless someone is convinced like Sergachev is next Bobby Orr they won't move up or down. A guy who is a center (Luc dubois) is more valuable than a straight out winger Habs might try to move & take him being French Ca.) Also, folks were saying Logan Brown will be very good. (because of his offensive skills) Habs would be happy they have M. MacCarron & he's one dimensional & not sure what that dimension is. Maybe we should be taking a longer look at Brown? Can't have enough size down the middle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saddly what i think it will be is that he will announce that Subban will NOT be traded, just to calm things down and take away any distraction for tomorrow.

But hopefully im wrong If there's no announcement to make, then don't have a press conference. When you call a press conference, people assume you have something to inform them of... If Bergevin is holding a press conference to tell everyone 'status quo', then that's pretty fvcking lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CommonDreads Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 Apparently Montreal's main priority is trying to trade up for Dubois, which would make Vancouver their prime trade partner most likely. I'm sure there's smoke there with VAN and MTL, probably just not going to happen with Subban. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldply123 Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Shattenkirk is a one yr deal guy right now and strong rumors he intends to tear UFA unless he gets a big deal. Not sure that's a move for Chiarelli to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which gives him leverage to choose a suitor. I don't see Shatt wanting to go to Edmonton. I've heard he'd prefer East Coast either Bruins, Rangers, Wings perhaps.

Lateralous Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 Good move by Florida to lock up their two young cornerstone players to long, and what I believe will be cap friendly deals. Bridge deals are for guys like Huberdeau IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
